The BOLUS EST screen appears with Normal Bolus, Square Wave Bolus, and Dual Wave Bolus options. If your
Bolus Wizard feature calculates that your bolus includes a portion to correct your high blood glucose, the Square
Wave Bolus option will not be available. This helps you to select a bolus type (Normal or Dual Wave) that has
an immediate delivery option to cover your high blood glucose.

To set a Square Wave bolus, do these steps:
a. In the BOLUS EST screen, select Square Wave Bolus, then press ACT.
b. The SET SQUARE BOLUS screen flashes the estimated bolus amount. Change the amount if needed. Press
ACT to accept the bolus amount.
To set a Dual Wave bolus, do these steps:
a. The SET DUAL BOLUS TOTAL screen flashes the estimated bolus amount. This amount is the total of both
the Normal and Square Wave bolus units. Change the amount if needed. Press ACT to accept the bolus
amount.
b. The next screen flashes the amounts of Now (Normal) and Square portions of the Dual Wave bolus. The
screen also shows the percentage amount of each portion. Press ACT to accept the Bolus Wizard's suggested
portions. You can also press
or to change these portions, then press ACT.
The Bolus Wizard feature recommends splitting the food portion of your bolus 50/50 between the Square
and Now portions. The entire correction amount is always recommended to the Now portion. In this example
the NOW portion consists of half of the food insulin plus the correction amount less the active insulin (1.5U
+ 2.5U - 1.5U). This gives 2.5U or 62% of total insulin of 4.0U. The Square portion consists of the
other half of the food insulin (1.5U), which is 38% of total insulin of 4.0U.
7
The SQUARE DURATION screen appears. Enter the amount of time you want the Square Wave bolus to last, then
press ACT.
If you have BG Reminder turned On, a screen displays. It allows you to accept or modify the length of time after
this bolus before you are reminded to check your blood glucose.
